Rocky, thank you for the wonderful information!
Being fairly new to photography, every new experience adds to my knowledge base.
Panning is much easier with jets than it is with birds. Ha ha ha Although jets can turn pretty fast too.
It never occurred to me to shoot in shutter priority. I was...

Thank you Rocky.
There were 5 of them but one just needed to stretch her wings at the right moment.

Rocky,
Thank you for your kind words. Yes, the sky and lighting were less than perfect.
I'd never tired to photograph a jet before so it was more of an experiment/learning experience for me.
I look at it as --- I didn't completely fail but I didn't completely succeed either. Ha ha ha
I'm...

The fractures in the tree bark could be from extra fast growth of the secondary layer in the tree. (Wet winter and spring)
The bark layer could not keep up with the growth expansion and split the bark layer which lead to the seeping of the sap.

Awe, the carefree days of youth.
Great shots!

Getting close enough for a shot is difficult.
This one seemed to pose for me with every shot I took.

He just has that calm demeanor!
The avian world responds well to calm.

I never would have expected this behavior.

Ummm....is that what I think it is? A flat fish?
Yep, a Starry Flounder just became dinner.
